Actor and writer Dan Levy has criticised the Saturday Night Live monologue delivered by comedian Shane Gillis, according to People's October 15 entertainment roundup.
Levy's remarks have been widely shared and have restarted a familiar argument: how far late-night comedy should go, who gets to decide, and whether a flagship platform like SNL carries a different responsibility than a club stage.
Supporters of Gillis counter that stand-up has always tested boundaries and that monologues are judged by audiences in the room and at home. Neither side shows much sign of conceding the point.
The exchange was among the most talked-about entertainment stories of the day, alongside developments in the Kelly Clarkson shop dispute and Selma Blair's court case.
